Here is your view as you enter the front door. I had planned to have cheap Target mirrors cut to size and edged with molding (a-la-Layla) on those coat closet doors, but it was going to cost around $40 and another day. I wasn’t feeling it right now but it’s on the to-do list.

Here is a reminder of what this room sort-of looked like before:

And here is the after!

And here is the breakdown of where everything is from:

And here is what you see when you close that big wood door (that still needs refinishing). Our mudroom.

I am loving your blog! I love the stencil. I went to Royal design.com and found the “birch allover” to be my favorite. I even posted that stencil on my facebook wall. I KNOW I read somewhere that you are giving away a free stencil. I really hope I win!!!!! Thank you, and I look forward to following you Beth!

It’s fabulous! What an awesome statement. The stencil, the board and batten, the details like the bird hooks – it’s all fabulous! I read your guest post on Emily Clark’s blog too and I could relate – I unsuccessfully had yellow and red in my home too.

Fantastic! Luv it! Beth, could you post a close up of how you tapered the boards at the bottom of the wall? Or at least I think you did. I used 1 by 6 for my floor molding with a flat edge on top and the vertical boards strait on bottom, what a dust collection spot! I don’t know what I was thinking.

Hey, girl, I saw that sneak peek & couldn’t wait to see more. Love, love the stencil, looks gorgeous in that space. In fact I have that same stencil tucked away & would love to break it out & use it somewhere. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s going in my parent’s house. 🙂 xoxo

Somehow I missed this! So glad it showed up on the top of my Facebook wall today, because it’s FABULOUS! What a difference some stenciling and board and batten makes, and then all of the finishing touches are the icing on the cake. I saw a garden stool like that at Marshall’s several months ago, and talked myself out of buying it. Now I could kick myself. I’ve looked every time I’m in there since, and they have never had more. Boo!! And of course, the price is at least double everywhere else I look. Oh well. Glad you grabbed it, because it looks great in your entryway.

Wow Beth! Your foyer turned out beautiful {and those bird hooks are to die for!!!} I’m sure now, it was definately worth all the pain in the patootie dealing with stenciling wasn’t it?! You did a great job and the room looks so fresh and airy! Great job!!

it totally sets the stage for your beautiful home. the color & the white is so crisp. gorgeous stencil. i must admit, i think i would go crazy doing a stencil. i don’t think God made me for that type of detailed work.

Woah Beth!!! This is such a fresh and fun entryway. Totally inviting and adorably styled. 🙂 You did an awesome job with our Royal Design Marrakech allover trellis. What are you going to stencil next? 😉

I can’t believe no one has commented on your cute little pup. Looks like he is there as the “official greeter”. What a cutie, and my second fav would be the bird hooks. Going to check those out, but it looks like I had better hurry or they will be sold out. Thanks for sharing your talents.

Gorgeous!! Good for you to fix that wreath–I probably would have left it broken forever and then been frustrated. Those hooks are perfect for that space and give it even more character. You have a nice touch!
